It is a fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few centers address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the client will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Germantown that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, they bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
